Tell me are you fed up with these papers yet?????
Promise I only have one more made from this stack.. but there's lots left so don't be surprised if more appear over the coming weeks as I am absolutely DETERMINED to use it up!
Then I can start on the second drawer of 36........................................ LOL
The organza ribbon is a strange colour and I have no recollection of buying it but it blends perfectly with these papers (maybe once the rest of the ribbon is used up I will stop the obsession with using up the stack???). I wrapped some round the papers (covering up some of the stitching ..DOH!) then made it into a quadruple bow.
The flower was made using scalloped nesties in varying sizes, spritzed each one with water then crumpled together and assembled with a brad to secure the middle and glued with a pop up dot onto the ribbon..
Sentiment stamp was a freebie from a craft magazine stamped in Versafine Onyx Black and I finished it all off with some blingy flourishes.
Quite like it so will probably do a few of these and leave off the sentiment so they could be used for any occasion.

Absolutely beautiful.
Oh Viv, I am positively drooling over this card!! It's so gorgeous. I have the Ella Blue stack too but never cut in to it *hangs head in shame* I get it out, stroke it & put it away again lol! Don't think I could ever get fed up with them.
My Summer has been very busy but fun, not much time for blogging though. I can see I've missed some amazing cards from you, love the one with all the dies (looking at buying that corner die now!), the Marcel Marceau one is fab as is the towel card!
Hope all is well with you x
